I'd like to give every Control a certain FontFamily and FontWeight in Silverlight 4.0. I know that styles can now apply to all controls of a certain type, so I tried this: <Style TargetType="Control"> <Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="Arial" /> <Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Bold" /> </Style> Unfortunately, that doesn...
I'm adding controls at run-time to the Page Form object. Each control has an Id. On postback, I want to be able to access these controls and their values. Currently, when I do a postback, the form has no controls in the Form.Controls Collection. How can I rectify this? Is this only possible if you add the controls to the page every ...
I get "Error rendering control" error that only happens when I place the control on the webform in desgin-mode, if I run the page the control is displayed correctly. The above statement is not important, this error happens because the returned toolbars object is null. After debugging, the problem is in a function that is called from Ce...
I cant seem to get this statement to work during run time. textWords.setText(item); textWords is an object, setText is a method and item is an integer. Anyone familiar with this? I cannot seem to get this to work during runtime. There is no error, during runtime it just doesn't do anything! public class frmMain extends javax.swing...
I am not fully sure about this, but I seem to be observing cases where focus shifts automatically from one control to another, even after I explicitly programmatically set the focus to control that I want to have focused. Maybe it has to do with the control in question being a panel, and it seems that WinForms is happier to have a textbo...
Hello. Long time reader, first time poster. I'm a big noob when it comes to win32 gui apps so here's my question. Let's say you have a handle to a window: HWND h_wnd; That window ultimately has a bunch of controls, list, buttons and whatnot. Now I believe all controls inherit from CWnd (maybe that's not the right technical term i...

We've got an old VB6 application we wrote about 10 years ago. Back then we had no faith in data binding, so we did all of our own population of controls in code. (Long story, don't ask.) This application is one of our primary apps, so it gets used heavily. Back then, we purchased third party controls for various things, one of them b...
I am trying to load a bunch of .NET hosted controls into a page dynamically using JavaScript to inject OBJECT tags into the HTML. My problem is that the objects do not instantiate, only the static object that is visible on page load will appear. Is there any way to get these objects to load? <h1> Visible static</h1> <div id="st...

Hello all, I have read some articles about this matter... and it seems that the Repeater is the one with best performance as explained in this other question: I know that the GridView is the heaviest of them all, and that it weights a lot in the ViewState. So the DataList has been the "best" option for some situations. But how about D...

Hi, is there a way I can get a Load event for System.Windows.Forms.Control just like System.Windows.Forms.Form.Load? I want to run some initialize code before the control first shown. Also, it would be nice to be able to do the same for System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripStatusLabel which is not actually a Control, but works like one. Idea...
